Tall Man's Prairie

Situated in Inman Park, Atlanta, this residence offers a remarkable opportunity to construct a new home while adhering to the stringent guidelines set forth by Historic Preservation. Embracing the Prairie Style, this selected architectural approach allows for the strategic arrangement of multiple windows, creating vast expanses of glass that optimize natural daylight and capitalize on the picturesque views of the park. The Prairie Style also seamlessly accommodates the client's preference for a contemporary, open interior design. Notably, this style incorporates expansive eaves, which serve to shade the house, and a lengthy side porch, which play a vital role in reducing the reliance on mechanical ventilation and promoting long-term sustainability. The Prairie Style's distinctive emphasis on horizontal lines, highlighted by the eaves, window detailing, and capstones, reflects this architectural choice harmoniously.
